NOTE:

THE MACHINE IS FITTED WITH A SPECIAL ELECTRONIC DEVICE, WHICH PREVENTS THE SPIN CYCLE SHOULD THE LOAD BE UNBALANCED.

THIS REDUCES THE NOISE AND VIBRATION IN THE MACHINE AND SO PROLONGS THE LIFE OF YOUR MACHINE.

If the fault should persist, contact a Hoover Technical Assistance Centre. For prompt servicing, give the model of the washing machine, to be found on the label placed on the cabinet inside of the porthole or on the guarantee certificate.

Important

1 The use of environment friendly detersives without phosphates may produce the following effects:

-The discharge rinse water may result cloudier due to the presence of zeolites in suspension. This does not compromise the efficiency of the rinses.

-The presence of white powder (zeolites) on the washing at the end of the washing cycle. This does not remain incorporated in the fabric and does not alter the colour.

-The presence of foam in the last rinse water which is not necessarily a sign of inadequate rinsing.

-The non-ionic surface-active agents present in the composition of washing machine detersives are often difficult to remove from the washing itself and, even in small quantities, may produce visible signs of the formation of foam.

-Carrying out further rinses, in cases such as this, is not useful.

2 If your washing machine fails to function, carry out the above-mentioned checks before calling the Hoover Technical Assistance Service.
